A member asked:
I take 25mg methotrexate weekly and want to have laser tattoo removal, will that be ok/?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably OK.: It should not be a problem, but it would help to know why you are taking the MTX. If it is for psoriasis, you might develop a plaque at the treatment site. Check with the doctor who is prescribing your MTX before proceeding.
